His misadventures in a hostile world would put Walter Mitty to shame for lack of imagination. He finds he has strange powers that bring him spectacular success at whatever he attempts--followed, it seems inevitably, by crushing disaster.

Keith Laumer, famous for his witty novels of galaxy-hopping adventure, has created a spooky, funny, hauntingly brilliant novel that cannot be put down--and will never be forgotten-- Welcome To Adam's World
